a tranquil haven in the city

spacious roomcomfortable bedfresh coffeesink stopper
i found the room quite spacious, a lovely surprise after a long journey. the bed offered such comfort, and it was like i was floating on a cloud each night. i could brew fresh coffee each morning because there was a coffee machine.
i noticed the sink stopper was not working properly . i had to mention it a few times before it was eventually addressed. this small detail did detract slightly from the overall experience, though it was resolved.

I stayed in the king suite and it was AMAZING. The location is REALLY convenient, very close to the Chrysler building. The free bag drop helped a lot since I arrived before check-in (I loved that).
The tv remote was a bit unresponsive.
